Adam waiting to feed a lonely white bird. Also visible is his glorious not-so-perfect ear anymore, after the incident.

Came back around 6pm after a long... long day. Went inside the house, throw the keys on the sofa and ran to the restroom. Out. Switch on the fan, the lights and the Playhouse Disney Channel 63. Chose two pyjamas and placed them on the sofa, with diapers. Placed the towels ready for showers. Took out the laundry bags and ran out of the house and place them in the car. Place Adam's baby chair back into its position. Had my partner in the car earlier, so it was removed to the back seat. Ran back into the house. Grabbed two lollipops. Back on the road heading for Adam's babysitter's. Need the lollipops to pacify him having to sit in the chair. He seemed to not want to be in it nowadays and I cant handle him seating else where in the car. Gave two honks and I immediately saw his head looking down at me. I can see those eyes peering from the window pane. The head disappeared. He came running down the stairs with the babysitter. Ran around the car, laughing, with me chasing close at his heels. Some days, he ran and jumped onto my arms. Most days, it's a chase and .... quite a struggle. Yes ... offered the lollipop and finally managed the seat belts around him. Drove out to the laundry. Took some laundry back. Adam requested for his side of the window to be open so that he could see mommy clearer -- I presumed.

Back on the roads, heading for Balqis' school. Arrived. Rang the bell. Adam called my name. Answered back so he knows I am around. He looked out of the window, saw me and waved. Balqis and friends ran to the door... saw me and Balqis gave a scream... Mommmmyyyyyy .... Waited for her to get ready with her shoes, her bags. Reminded her of her water bottle. She disappeared back into the school. She came out with the maid and Mrs Law the principal. She decided she doesnt want to go back yet. 'I want to walk with my feet first Ma'. 'No Balqis... it's late. Get into the car please.' Everybody helped me pacify her. Mrs Law promised a morning walk on the next day. Of course Balqis has already decided that the walk should be this particular evening. After talking, explaning and pacifying, which failed miserably, I let Mrs. Law take over. It was another 20 minutes before she finally was placed on her booster chair. No lollipop can do anything to help me at that point. She screamed and yelled and cried as I practically forced her in.

Drove off finally. She offered her hand to say sorry in between sobs. I took it and told her not to repeat that incident again. Arrived home. Balqis didnt want to walk to the house but want to be carried. Got out of the car. Opened the door. Carried her to the house. Unlock the lock. Into the house -- place her on the sofa. Stanley, I believe was on. Went back to the car. Opened Adam's side of the door. Dont want to be carried. 'Nak walk' came the instruction. Let him got out of the car on his own. Walked him into the house. Requested for Balqis to open her shoes and help Adam with his. Back to the car. Took out Adam's bag and Balqis' bag. Back into the house. Went back outside. Took all the laundry out. Those took two trips. Back to the car. Drove it into the garage. Back into the house. They were arguing over a toy. Adam hit Balqis on the head. Balqis wailed and screamed as loud as possible. There has been instances when I entered the house and both would be glued on the TV, which would have been a big relief. Requested for both of them to take out their clothes while I do the same. Chased both of them into the showers. I declared that shower time is over. 'I dont want to go out!' both screamed at me. Practically forced Balqis and Adam out of the bathroom after all else failed.

Both are not happy with Mommy but condoned. Pyjamas on. Tonight, there was no arguments on choice of pyjamas. Went to the kitchen to prepare their milk. After milk, running around the sofa, jumping on the side table and onto the couch seemed to be the event of the night. A spanking threaten issued and ignored. Another threaten issued. This time more firm. Balqis started to cry and offered her hand and said that she was sorry. Adam does not care but slowed down considerably. Bear in the big blue house is on and both got ready to be sniffed at. Eyes glued on the tube. It was 2 hours and 2 feeds later that Adam finally slept. It was no easy mission. Almost impossible it seemed. Balqis decided to be online with Barbie for awhile after Adam slept. After a few reminders, she followed suit half an hour later. I checked on Adam's bandaged left ear constantly and gently reminding him not to sleep on it. His ear -- well.... that's another long story, blood, sweat and all. Right now, I just want to sit down, read my book, sip my milk and sigh.
